THE DIAGNOSIS OF MENISCUS INJURIES
Some New Clinical Methods
A. GRAHAM APLEY F.R.C.S.1
1 PORTSMOUTH, ENGLAND
Some new tests for the diagnosis of meniscus injury, and its differentiation from rotation sprain, have been described. These tests aim at separating the individual components in knee-joint injury, and at reproducing the causal grinding force of meniscus damage. With wider experience, it is hoped that they may help to reduce the percentage of errors in the diagnosis of knee-joint injuries.
